Congratulations to the 2nd XV who had a comfortable win against Luctonians 3's on Saturday. Some confusion over the score between our roving reporters and the referee; however JJ has confirmed the final score as Luctonians 3's 30 - Stourbridge 2nd XV 66. Congratulations boys on another great victory!

Match report:

Luctonians 30, Stourbridge Lions 66

This game had 'banana skin' written all over it. Lucs had tested Stour at home and, having won the league 2 weeks ago, there was always a danger of motivation levels dropping for Stour.

Ethan Gilbert allayed that fear from an early lineout, breaking clear for a superb try...the sort we have become accustomed to this season.
Stour surged to a 38-7 lead with some superb link and support play, showcasing the talent in the ranks.

Lucs had their moments and mounted a mini revival based around their driving play from close range, aided by Stour's ill discipline.....but the scoreboard didn't lie. A raucous home support were left disappointed and Stour were worthy and comfortable winners at a historically tricky venue.

James Westwood-8 cons

Dan Wood slotted in seamlessly at 9 for his first league game of the year and Ethan Shewring is proving to be a frustrated fly half at tight head. Will Waterfield showed brain and brawn at 12 and George Westwood was a continual threat at 15. Ben Furber was a menace and player coach Rich Thurston also put a shift in.

The bench of Zak Grant, Callum Corcoran and Joe Wood also made a big impact on proceedings.

2 league games remain and 2 cup fixtures as we build towards Level 7.

Greyhounds:

The Greyhounds took on Camp Hill 3's at home on Saturday and took the victory.
Final score Stourbridge Greyhounds 42 - Camp Hill 3's 5.
Congratulations boys on a deserved win!

Colts:

On Sunday the Colts took on Ledbury after being crowned league champions. In what sounds like a very dominant performance our boys took the victory with the final score Stourbridge Colts 52 - Ledbury 0.
Congratulations boys on your impressive win!

Panthers:

On Sunday the ladies travelled to Tamworth hoping to repeat their success in the reverse fixture. Unfortunately it was not to be this time around and Tamworth secured their win with a final score of Tamworth Ladies 38 - Stourbridge Panthers 17.
Well played ladies!

Thanks to all of our supporters who got out to an SRFC at the weekend!
